Durham Premises Liability Attorneys
Focus on Recovery — Kornbluth Ginsberg Law Group Can Manage Your Case
Premises liability law protects those who have been injured on another person’s property. Not all injuries are covered under these laws — a condition of direct negligence on the part of the property owner must be met to qualify an incident as a premises liability case.

What Qualifies as a Premises Liability Case?
Injuries sustained at a business or residence, as a result of owner, renter, or staff carelessness, can be classified as premises liability cases.
Slip and fall cases are some of the most common premises liability injuries. Conditions such as:
- Raised floorboards,
- Inadequate stair covers and railings
- Slippery floors
- Anything that causes someone to trip and fall
can be grounds for a case. Property owners can avoid liability if they provide adequate warning of the danger, such as by displaying a “Wet Floor” sign.
Dog bites and harm caused by a lack of security on the property can also qualify as premises liability cases, depending on the warning of risk provided by the owner, and other circumstances.
It is important to note that premises liability law only covers those who are lawfully present at a residential or commercial property. Property owners are not liable for the injuries of trespassers, regardless of whether or not the injury can be attributed to their negligence.
What to Do if a Property Owner’s Negligence Caused Your Injury
Some property owners and renters have premises liability coverage included in their insurance policy. There are also policies that cover all injuries on the property, whether the owner is liable or not, called “no-fault” coverage.
However, some places are not covered by insurance, and even those that are may not provide you with the proper benefits upon injury. If you believe you have a case, enlist the help of our Durham premises liability attorneys to ensure you receive just compensation.
